SALVATION ONLY COMES THROUGH THE DOOR—JESUS

My late husband told me before he went home to be with the Lord Jesus Christ in 2021 that many he knew were not truly born again…that they had a head knowledge with no heart change like he had when he first met me over 28 years ago. 

Before he died, he gave me specific instructions which I followed directly.

He told me that many think they can come down to the wire—that they can come to a funeral and think in their minds that things are alright but they are not. He said, “no one can come to a funeral and get things right—it’s too late.” He said they have to go to God through the only door—Jesus—to be truly born-again to spend eternity with Him. 

Jesus gave us specific instructions in His Word and whether we like it or not, we will all come to the gate of death or rapture or be left behind by choice. If you are born again, you will spend eternity with God and all those gone before us.. 

It’s too late when YOU die to make things right…and it is too late to make things right with a person who has died. The ONLY way to make things right IS ONLY through JESUS CHRIST and true repentance that brings about genuine heart change and transformation. 

Nicodemus asked Jesus a question in John 3:1-21 and it is a valid question today for everyone. 

“Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. This man came to Jesus by night and said to him, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do unless God is with him.” Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born-again he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus said to him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?” Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, “You must be born-again. The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.” 

Take time to read John chapter 3 and make certain of where you will spend eternity!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and ready for the New Year–2022.

Make certain to stay in your own lane, focus on fulfilling your purpose and do it well. You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you. (see Philippians 4:13). 

If you are having a difficult time making a decision about something, stand back, pray and listen for the Holy Spirit of God to speak to you. Always go with peace in your heart and pursue your God-given dreams. Ignore naysayers and surround yourself with people of purpose! God has an awesome plan for YOUR LIFE! 

Read the Bible and find out how to make the most of every opportunity in light of what is next for the nation, for you and your family, and for the body of Christ. God has put dreams in your heart that He wants you to fulfill! Make godly choices and live your best life NOW! 

Blessings and Happy New Year!

Angels are waiting for you to cooperate with God through praying His Word. Psalm 103:20

It is written, “Bless the LORD, you His angels, Who excel in strength, who do His word, Heeding the voice of His word” (Psalm 103:20).  That is HUGE! Get it in your spirit man right NOW. 

It’s like trying to go to work…you get showered and dressed for work and walk out the door to your car and get inside. You put the key in the ignition and turn it on or you press the button with your key nearby and the car engine starts right up. You are ready to go, right?

Being saved and not heeding the Word of God or obeying the Holy Spirit’s promptings is like expecting to make it to work on time while you sit in your car without putting the key in the ignition and turning it over. When you pray the Word of God, angels are dispatched from heaven to bring the answers to your prayers. What are you waiting on??? 

If we want to see the power of God manifest in our lives, we have to pray the Word of God and believe. We also have to watch the words that we allow to cross our lips. Just because you think something doesn’t mean it is good to say it. It may be a negative tape from the past, or a fiery dart from Satan to tempt you to believe a lie, or to reason, or to miss a blessing from God. Don’t be hung by your tongue. 

Matthew 12:36-37 says, “But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.” 

The phrase…”every idle word” means nonproductive. Every time you say things you don’t mean …it begins to numb your heart and causes you not to believe. Jesus understood the power of words and He used them to change the natural things around him…AND we would do well to do what He does. Words have power…life and death. Your words that have power are words that are filled with belief. Believe God today for miracles and divine intervention, no matter what you are facing. 

It is written: “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me” (Galatians 2:20).

The Bible is talking about the very faith of God that He has placed in you and me when we were born-again. God created everything with words. He spoke creation into existence. Everything we see was created by words, and it is the very Word of God that holds the universe together (Hebrews 1:3). Let’s get this RIGHT NOW. Everything we see will respond to faith -filled words. 

What is in your heart today? Are you missing out on the blessings of God? Make sure to check your own heart….

We do this by observing our words. Proverbs 23:7 says that as you think in your heart, so are you. Luke 6:45 says that what you speak comes out of the abundance of your heart. Simply put, the way you think controls the way you speak. Understand today–that your words have power–life and death. Don’t be hung by your tongue.

Bishop over your own heart and run anything out that is not Christlike. Get rid of any anger, bitterness, evil speaking, and old hurts (real and perceived) that may be lurking in the corners of your heart. Put the key in the ignition and turn the key today through praying God’s Word. Get into divine alignment with the Father God and speak life. Fully cooperate with the Holy Spirit of God and expect miracles, divine intervention, healing, health and prosperity. PRAY THE WORD NOW! Angels are waiting to bring the answer to YOUR prayers!

God loves you!

His love and mine,

Deborah
